Year of Living Without

After reading Manu's great post about his newest year without experiment and the original inspiration from Leo Babuta, I'm ready to embark on my own.

I'll take the month-at-a-time approach and am only thinking through what the first 6 months of 2023 will attempt. As I get closer to the mid-point of the year, I'll evaluate what I should eliminate for the last half. I'm planning to write about each month as it concludes with a short retrospective on how it felt and if I succeeded.

Here's my list for January – June:

January – Phone in grayscale mode only.
February – No sweets.
March – Only water or coffee to drink; coffee must be black, no dairy, no sweeteners.
April – ~~No Apple Watch.~~ No devices in bathroom.
May – No podcasts or audiobooks.
June – No email newsletters.

Should be interesting! Email me if you have questions or want to discuss.
